The video production equipment we shoot with depends entirely on the nature of the shoot and the final deliverables and delivery options requested by the client. The short answer is that we shoot in strictly High Definition. Even if your video production’s final output is for standard definition Dvd or the web we still shoot in HD. For most of our shoots we use a steadicam stabilizer device to achieve smooth gliding and tracking shots. For larger video productions we shoot with a camera jib crane either mounted onto a tripod or mounted to a vehicle.
There are many factors involved in determining the cost of producing a complete video including, days of shooting, locations, actors, special effects, special equipment ETC. We recommend using our request a quote form or contacting us directly for information on pricing. If you have a set budget, be sure to let us know as this helps us plan your video project.
The time it takes to produce and complete a video varies from project to project. TV-commercials, Promotional Videos, and Event videos can usually be completed in 1-2 weeks depending on length of the project. Wedding videos usually take between 3-5 months to complete. Documentaries and corporate videos can range anywhere between 4 weeks and 5 months and beyond.
We find that interviewing the owner of the business is the best way to learn the most about the company. By being on camera you make your company more personable and friendly and your customers and clients will even recognize you when they enter your business. However, if you feel you would rather not be interviewed on camera there are still some great alternatives to producing a video for you. Instead of interviewing you we can have a voice-over created with a script that is written. Usually we will speak with you about your company, your products and services, and more and from there we write a script which is read by a voice-over artist.
